Hey PH! Second time is the charm here on our intro :) 🤦‍♀️ We're so excited to unveil Spokn, an app for creating and sharing internal company podcasts! More details are in Gustaf's post. TLDR: In the age of Zoom fatigue, Slack chaos and impersonal emails, we help company leaders communicate with their teams in a way that's personal and scalable: audio. We think life is a lot better when employees can stay in the loop without being stuck to a screen. Weekly team recaps, department updates, new hire welcomes, stories of company history, even a company's inside jokes - there's a lot you can share in audio. We’d love for you to check out our quick demo film and let us know your feedback, your ideas, and your questions, too!

Hey PH! It’s Mariel here from Spokn, an app for creating and sharing internal company podcasts. We help you keep employees connected to your strategy and culture – without Zoom fatigue 😅. My cofounder Fawzy and I have been audio nuts for a long time. Same for most people we know. Since podcasts are so popular, we wondered why more companies weren't using them. Then remote work happened. We saw leaders struggling to keep employees aligned with company strategy and culture. Zoom fatigue is *reeeal* and time zones are a scheduling nightmare. Emails feel impersonal (if they ever get read) and Slack is really noisy. So we launched Spokn as a personal and scalable way to keep employees in the loop while giving them a break from their screens. We’re excited to work with amazing companies like Superhuman, Mixpanel, ShipBob, Cedar Health and more. Some of the audios shared on Spokn: - Weekly team recaps - Department updates - New hire welcomes - Big win celebrations - Stories on company history - Values spotlights - Internal company jokes - explained :) We’d love to get some feedback, hear ideas for use cases, and answer questions, too! Big thanks, Mariel + Fawzy

@ross_cranwell2 thanks! We've found that once companies start, they like to get really creative 😎. My personal favorite is the Weekly Recommendation - diff employee from around the company records their recommendation (food, film, hobby, book, place, anything). You learn a lot about your peers that way and some are pretty funny :)

Looks great! Are there certain company sizes or teams/departments you've seen this work best with? I've already recommended it to a friend who works in HR, I think they're trialing it, good luck!

Thanks - the range is big! We've got teams of ~50+ using Spokn at larger companies, and most early customers roll out Spokn as they scale 150 ➡️ 250 ➡️ 500 ➡️ 1000+. These are inflection points where it's easy for employees to lose a sense of direction and connection to the company). The use case looks a little different in each.

@briannoguchi Thanks! Depends on what they use it for. Replacing the weekly update email is pretty common. Some companies (esp ones with employee engagement teams) make special podcasts interviewing customers, employees, etc and those are less frequent. All our users get access to a library of audios from external experts too (HBS, MIT, Columbia, etc) so it's never an empty platform :)
